Mount Heragan is located in the southern central part of The Heragan Democratic Province, the political region that was named after it
Ecosystem
Outside of the mountain is a baron wonderland of ice, its high peak lacks much oxygen. The inside has hundreds of tunnels made by the dragons that resided here for hundreds of years, and the Archdragons that rule over the mountain's conflicts.
There are multiple different ecosystems that are held inside the mountain, from the mushroom forests in the mid levels, to the crystalline caves as you get lower into the mountain's base to below. The lowest area is the area in which the mind flayers reside, it is filled with reflective mirror pools that the mind flayers mainly don't touch in the higher parts of the lowest level, but use as spawning pools as you get deep into the caverns and tunnels.
Ecosystem Cycles
During Cadens Solis, Virent Nemus, and Coloratum Nemus, the creaures of the mountain stay in their homes, except for a few annual holidays and celebrations. During Plenum Solis, the mettalic dragons leave their homes to venture to an island in which many of the dragons who didn't go to mount Heragan when they were pushed out of Shardhelm, the HDP, and the Isles of Tempests, reside. They have an annual conference of Archdragons, and a festival open to the nearby residents of the Isles of Tempests, and those invited.
Climate
During Cadens Solis, and Coloratum Nemus, it is frigidly cold, frost and snow covers everything.
During Virent Nemus, flowers sometimes grow at the base of the mountain.
